:00:00. > :00:00.Time now for a look at the news as seen across the United States a

:00:07. > :00:14.couple of hours ago, in ABC World News with Dianne Sawyer.

:00:15. > :00:17.Welcome. Tonight, cockpit confusion. How did pilots on this passenger

:00:18. > :00:23.plane land at the wrong airport on a runway so small they had to screech

:00:24. > :00:32.at the finish? Passengers on what happened.

:00:33. > :00:38.What's in the drinking water, five days after the company says it safe?

:00:39. > :00:42.And sneezing and greetings. Are you safe hugging someone with a cold? We

:00:43. > :00:57.are in the lab for real answers. Good evening. We begin this week

:00:58. > :01:04.with a moment that has everyone asking, how could this happen? A big

:01:05. > :01:11.passenger jet landed at the wrong airport, screeching to a halt.

:01:12. > :01:14.Tonight, an investigation is under way and passengers are speaking out

:01:15. > :01:24.about how they felt as the plane hit the brakes. For passengers onboard

:01:25. > :01:31.the flight, the chaos and confusion began when they felt the pilot slam

:01:32. > :01:37.on the break. It quickly became clear there was a problem. The pilot

:01:38. > :01:45.said, I'm sorry but we landed at the wrong airport. The plane, packed

:01:46. > :01:49.with 140 passengers, took off and was supposed to land in Missouri.

:01:50. > :01:53.The pilot was cleared to land there. Instead, he some may --

:01:54. > :01:58.somehow landed here, seven miles away, at a much smaller airport.

:01:59. > :02:03.Runway is facing a similar direction. This runway is more than

:02:04. > :02:09.7000 feet long and has an overrun zone. The runway at the smaller

:02:10. > :02:15.airport is some 3000 feet shorter and there are steep drop-off at each

:02:16. > :02:19.end. That's why the pilot slammed on the brakes, the plane coming to a

:02:20. > :02:22.screeching halt just 300 feet before it would have plunged over the edge.

:02:23. > :02:29.Jilla this could have been really bad. -- this could have been. That

:02:30. > :02:34.Bromley was never built to take such a large plane. -- that runway. The

:02:35. > :02:45.pilot tried to calm the passengers. A similar incident in November when

:02:46. > :02:57.this cargo jet landed at a tiny airport in Kansas. Much smaller than

:02:58. > :03:01.its intended destination. At 737, -- authorities have been searching for

:03:02. > :03:06.answers. The black box has been shipped for review. The pilots have

:03:07. > :03:09.been grounded as they investigate what went wrong.

:03:10. > :03:17.The developing story. This one out of Florida. It echoes another

:03:18. > :03:22.tragedy in Colorado. The movie theatre, gunmen and heroes at the

:03:23. > :03:27.ready inside. They might have saved lives.

:03:28. > :03:37.The shooting happened during movie previews at an high end movie

:03:38. > :03:42.theatre. At approximately 1:30pm, we got an emergency call for a shooting

:03:43. > :03:49.at the theatre. There will be many people inside. Police say one couple

:03:50. > :03:53.were there to see a lone survivor, that he was using a cellphone,

:03:54. > :04:00.texting and tweeting noise. That's when they say a 71 -year-old got fed

:04:01. > :04:05.up and went for the manager. He came back very irritated. They started

:04:06. > :04:14.arguing about the cellphone. The guy who was shot dead something like, I

:04:15. > :04:18.was just text in my daughter. We now learn the 71 -year-old was a retired

:04:19. > :04:22.police officer. When he got to the seat, he fought with the couple and

:04:23. > :04:29.pulled out a gun. I'm not sure who threw the popcorn. Suddenly, bang.

:04:30. > :04:34.He studied to sit over, fell on my son and I. And off duty officer kept

:04:35. > :04:38.the accused in the theatre until police arrived. The man is in

:04:39. > :04:46.custody and he could be charged with second degree homicide.

:04:47. > :04:53.The people waiting for five days for drinking water and water take the --

:04:54. > :04:59.to take part in West Virginia. Some of the families are being told the

:05:00. > :05:04.water is safe. Even if it has a strong and strange smile. Our

:05:05. > :05:08.correspondent has more. These National Guard troops are

:05:09. > :05:14.testing the water in Charleston. Hundreds of people are lining up to

:05:15. > :05:19.fill their jugs, five days into this ordeal. 300,000 people were ordered

:05:20. > :05:23.to take a drink or base in water after a chemical leaked into the

:05:24. > :05:32.river, polluting the water supply. For many people, sweet relief. We

:05:33. > :05:37.are at a point where you can use water in certain areas. Some people

:05:38. > :05:47.might smell chemical's licorice over. That scares this woman. She is

:05:48. > :05:56.scared of giving her sons tap water ever again. Will you have confidence

:05:57. > :06:02.in the water? No. I will use food stamps. The head of the water

:06:03. > :06:07.treatment plants as they are testing the water before they get it the

:06:08. > :06:18.seal of approval. Will you drink the glass of water? Yes, any time. When

:06:19. > :06:25.the system is flushed. Residents will have to flush out the leftover

:06:26. > :06:30.water in their pipes. The chemical, see -- company responsible for the

:06:31. > :06:41.late has not been inspected since the '90s. People are still lining up

:06:42. > :06:44.for water. After the cold and dangerous mess

:06:45. > :06:51.across the country, the polar vortex is gone. Miles of potholes and

:06:52. > :06:59.floods are left behind. Our correspondent has more.

:07:00. > :07:03.The big thaw is causing problems. In Chicago, three people plunged into

:07:04. > :07:08.the icy waters. Two died. In Maryland, three children were

:07:09. > :07:15.rescued as they fell through the ice. At least two tornadoes in North

:07:16. > :07:21.Carolina. In New York, ten feet of water flooding homes. Families were

:07:22. > :07:27.rescued by bulldozers. In New Hampshire, the water looked like a

:07:28. > :07:35.scattered shaking -- skating rink. Here, eyes that has not melted.

:07:36. > :07:39.Giant potholes in Pennsylvania, turning this bridge into Swiss

:07:40. > :07:48.cheese. The warm-up is causing a mess.

:07:49. > :07:51.There is fresh trouble for Chris Christie of New Jersey after the

:07:52. > :07:58.scandal over the APEC traffic jam. Tonight, any question Ian Botham

:07:59. > :08:04.Superstorm Sandy and his family. It is fair? Our correspondent has more.

:08:05. > :08:10.Chris Christie was the political hero of a king Sandy. Parking

:08:11. > :08:16.victims, walking the beach with a Democratic president. But he is

:08:17. > :08:21.under federal investigation. $25 million of federal money used to

:08:22. > :08:29.create this ad campaign featuring Chris Christie, his wife and his

:08:30. > :08:35.children. It was added during the pre-election campaign. Now, a second

:08:36. > :08:43.federal investigation, separate from the bridge scandal. Did he pick an

:08:44. > :08:48.ad agency twice as expensive city could start in the commercials? This

:08:49. > :08:55.is a higher bid. The lower bid refused to use the governor and his

:08:56. > :09:02.family. Everything in the two bids was apples to apples. None of the

:09:03. > :09:07.creative is included the governor. The governor has not been seen in

:09:08. > :09:12.public since the marathon news conference. Both commercials were

:09:13. > :09:17.approved by the Obama Administration. Also, another

:09:18. > :09:23.high-profile governor, starring in the California commercial. But these

:09:24. > :09:30.were privately funded, raising more questions about how things are done

:09:31. > :09:36.in Chris Christie's New Jersey. Iran has set a date to move forward

:09:37. > :09:42.in their nuclear deal. The agreement with the US and five other countries

:09:43. > :09:44.are taking effect in January 20. It promises to reduce its nuclear

:09:45. > :09:50.programme and promised daily inspections.

:09:51. > :09:58.Still to come on the programme: What is the answer to the cold and

:09:59. > :10:03.influenza? Is it safer to hug someone then shake hands? Fist

:10:04. > :10:54.bumps? High-fives? How to reduce the risk of the sneezy season.

:10:55. > :10:59.How to be with people but are buoyed the colds and influenza. Tonight,

:11:00. > :11:07.the flu outbreak is still in 20 states. How do you get the least

:11:08. > :11:10.exposure? A hug? A handshake? They high-fives? Our correspondent has

:11:11. > :11:17.more. Can we as so the question? What is

:11:18. > :11:23.the best way to greet each other to protect ourselves? A handshake? Fist

:11:24. > :11:30.bump? High-fives? For our experiment, I am a patient. My hand

:11:31. > :11:40.is covered with thousands of E. Coli bacteria. These are on harmful. We

:11:41. > :11:46.begin. The hands of volunteers are free of E. Coli. I shook hands with

:11:47. > :11:50.all of the volunteers in group one. The press their hands in the special

:11:51. > :11:58.plates. The plays are incubated overnight. My hand, on the left.

:11:59. > :12:03.This is how much I passed on to the volunteer. Almost as much as me. She

:12:04. > :12:10.shakes hands with the next volunteer and so on. It takes four handshakes

:12:11. > :12:15.for the transfer to the crease. The last person in line but enough

:12:16. > :12:21.bacteria from my head to get sick. We compare that to a fist bump. I am

:12:22. > :12:26.on the left. The plate on the right, the first fist bump. Fewer germs.

:12:27. > :12:34.Fist bump is minimised the surface area. Time also matters. Fist bumps

:12:35. > :12:39.which is the length of time your hands are in contact. What about

:12:40. > :12:46.high-fives? The hands of fully touching. But the contact time is

:12:47. > :12:50.short. Mine is on the left. The first high-fives is on the right.

:12:51. > :12:57.The result? The same as the fist bump. Much more affected than the

:12:58. > :13:05.handshake. During the flu season, mix it up.

:13:06. > :13:12.What about hugging? It is good if you do it like these women. Over the

:13:13. > :13:17.shoulder, not face-to-face. Past the cheek and over the shoulder. The

:13:18. > :13:25.head is intense. You touch your eyes and nose. Your eyes and nose, given

:13:26. > :13:31.that the entry points into the body. A common way to get sick. The worst

:13:32. > :13:37.thing, handshakes. It is not good. You have the germs right there. The

:13:38. > :13:44.best thing, high-fives or the fist bump. If you are a thread of germs,

:13:45. > :13:50.the elbow of the works that always works.

:13:51. > :13:57.A fountain of youth for your brain. Can you click on the bird that looks

:13:58. > :14:05.different from the others? A groundbreaking new study found brain

:14:06. > :14:10.games like these work after all. After six weeks, participants found

:14:11. > :14:21.it easier to manage daily life, pay bills, Cork, keep medication

:14:22. > :14:28.straight, improve memory for years. An afternoon service coinciding with

:14:29. > :14:35.a play-off game. This past us sped things. Do you want to be forgiven

:14:36. > :14:42.for your sins? There is some bread and wine on the table. Feel free to

:14:43. > :14:52.help yourself. He revealed a 49ers T-shirt under his robe. The Lord did

:14:53. > :14:55.not mind the abbreviated sermon. General Motors vanquished

:14:56. > :15:02.competitors with two mighty wins at an auto show. What was the

:15:03. > :15:12.successful idea? The first woman CEO of a car

:15:13. > :15:20.company. Our correspondent has more. A first for General Motors. The

:15:21. > :15:26.winner is the stingray. Winning both top car and top truck of the year.

:15:27. > :15:30.It is the woman behind the winning design who is grabbing all of the

:15:31. > :15:39.headlines. Her first public appearance since being named the

:15:40. > :15:43.CEO. We have an exclusive behind the scenes access. People are going to

:15:44. > :15:48.focus on the fact you are a woman, the first woman. Never approached it

:15:49. > :15:59.from that perspective. In, work hard. Build a strong team. The

:16:00. > :16:10.success of GM, on her shoulders. Lighter and more fuel efficient

:16:11. > :16:17.models. There are new technologies are cannot talk about. I cannot. It

:16:18. > :16:23.is a competitive imperative for us. Is the first woman in her family to

:16:24. > :16:28.go to college. She started GM in 1980. Her father worked for the

:16:29. > :16:36.company for 39 years. This is the Cadillacs. What would your parents

:16:37. > :16:40.think? There would be so proud. What does it say to the American or the

:16:41. > :16:46.company and the people to see a woman on top? Had no idea this was

:16:47. > :16:51.the world would be playing. I approached it with the same

:16:52. > :16:59.strategy. It is a strong message about hard work. Her prediction for

:17:00. > :17:04.the future? More electric cars and self driving cars. There will be on

:17:05. > :17:09.the roads in our lifetime. They will be safe.

:17:10. > :17:24.We will see you here tomorrow. A drop in temperature following

:17:25. > :17:33.Monday afternoon. Ice in some areas. Patchy fog across central and

:17:34. > :17:34.western areas. Into the morning rush hour, frost and fog will
